Abstract: This activity will last 20 minutes. An interactive presentation will be structured at three steps. First, a debate will be facilitated to engage participants on the following questions: i. What is family vulnerability? ii. Why should we measure family vulnerability at the context of Primary Health Care (PHC)? Second, once concepts are aligned, a brief presentation about the Vulnerability Family Scale for Brazil (EVFAM-BR) will be performed. At this time, participants will have the opportunity to know about the process of development, validation and the final version of EVFAM-BR (Souza et al., 2023, available at https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0280857). Third, presenters will share step by step how EVFAM-BR can be implemented into PHC, considering two real-world experiences in Brazil, Southeast and North regions, and will discuss about possible strategies to tailor it at different cultural and geographic context, from settings with higher vulnerability and low resources to high technology settings.
